Absolutely one of the best automotive series in the world.

Skid factory feels like MCM when they first started and I like it.
Except that Turbo Yoda knows exactly what to do mechanically.
this feels nothing like that, he's in a real shop with real tools with real knowledge lol
Yeh this guy actually knows what he’s talking about ... unlike those other flogs..
ha
And it's not jdm all the time
"You know what would be good? If your story had more dragons."
I am *definitely* using this line
I've seen that as meme except it was more like "Cool story bro, Needs more and dragons and shit."
Al seems alot more comfortable in front of the camera it's great
Jake W - indeed. Soon time for their own dedicated channel?
The less / absence of music fit the show better. I don't know who's call that was but thanks.
Would love to see a budget 4x4 build off by Marty and MOOG something they don't know tons about then a 4x4ing competition afterwards.
They don´t seem that keen on off-roaders - Marty calls them "boats".
Thats the point give them more of a challenge to build something they know little about then try them out see who does better.
Now I get it - take them outside their comfort zone; I like your idea...
I just don't know who you're talking about....
What strange names you are referring to....
Today is just good, mcm put a new vid up now this to end my night pretty much a perfect end to the day
RossNos1 and bad obsesion motorsport posted a video as well :D
fila1445 oh yes the q&a
It's interesting seeing a diesel conversion. I only just realised the old engine was petrol. Also its interesting seeing an old pile of junk being worked on as compared to that classic fairline. This is just nuts and bolts basic engineering without the worry about making a masterpiece. It's far more accessible to most amateurs.
He might call it a pile of junk but a gu patrol is probably the best off road vehicles ever made especially with factory diff lock and a td42.
This is a typical job in Australian sheds. It’s usually the Sunday cruiser and a bush basher
LandRoverLife i strongly disagree. The 80 series LandCruiser was easily the best 4be built.
Hi Al. Watched your work on mcm. Nice to see someone with experience working on vehicles , instead of the usual kid who has just bought a new welder , never welded before and is trying to teach other kids how to weld and that sort of rubbish. Ive owned 3 td42s over the years and have learned a few handy hints along the way.
Silvertop motors like yours with vac for brakes of the alternator have crap / dangerous braking. Do youself a favour and put a set of ceramic pads on both ends. Genuinely gives 30% better stopping power.
The std inlet manifold on the silver an blacktops are only gd for around 120-125 rear wheel kws. After that they start to become a choke point. At higher kws, cutting the manifold and adding a lot more volume to the top is required. Plenty info on forums about that.
I put a 75mm thick 300mm x 600mm intercooler on my last one and they help alot for even daily driving. U can fit them stealth in front of the radiator if you attack the inside of the grill enough. I understand tho that front intercoolers arent Ideal in many parts of Oz coz of kangaroos etc. (im kiwi)
Gd you have reasonable electric fuelpump to supply the injector pump coz thats an area of possible issues as well. about 4psi is a happy thing.
3" dump off the turbo is essential as well as 3 inch mandrel bent exhaust to the back as well.
I fitted a pre turbo pyro to a temp guage on the dash and its real handy for street tuning and keeping an eye on things under heavy load and up hills. Im very happy ith my TD05-16G Large from ufi. Im 58 but if I was 30 again id be chasing 175RWKWs plus.
I put a boost gauge on the dash and use a cab adjustable bleed valve to adjust boost.
Mechanically ok and well maintained 4.2s both silver and blacktops are happy with boost into mid 20 psi range in stock trim. Both have piston squirters but the blacktop system is a little better coz oil can go into the piston across a gallery and return to sump. slivertops have a gd hole to cool the piston top but not quite as effective as the blacktop. silvertops have a bit heavier gudgeon pins but the smaller blacktop ones never give any problems unless the motor is hydrauliced with water or some other catastrophic problem. Both engines run noticeably better on synthetic motor oil. The blacktop motor(94 onwards has an 8kg heavier block than the earlier silvertops like yours. Plenty of 30psi boosted silvertops out there have never had the head off tho! Ve pumps like a degree or 2 of timing advance above factory spec according to a guy I dealt with who is converting 10 patrols a week in WA.
Battery to battery box earths can do and often work loose. They are worth checking. Steering shudder at 95 to 105kph is real common. Its usually the front pandard loose or worn ends. Bottom of the steering cover balls theres a plate with 4x about 8mm bolts hoding them on. Try taking 1 bolt out and it will let out any water that can accumulate in there.
If freewheeling front hubs start to grab and make a whirring noise unexpectedly (happened to me on 2 vehicles) just take the freewheeling hubs off, fill them with your favourite thin gear oil (i used atf) an slap them back on as quick as you can without losing too much oil. It will fix the hubs from trying to engage (usually coz they have been overgreased) and add a little extra lube inside the steering balls and to the cvs and help keep the steering ball covers lubed. Btw u can cut the new ball seals and fit them (cut at top)without having to spend hours dismantling everthing.
GU/GQ Nissan front spring bump stops are a joke, they are too long and usually break off and end up sideways inside the coil spring looking like a lost dildo. Just buy some second hand ones off any 80 series landrover. They fit great an work way better. Jus cut about 30mm off the top of them YMMV or u get reduced travel and flex in the front end.
Theres a lemon motor to avoid out there. Its the blacktop non turbo motor made around 94/95. They have weak rods and light pistons. They are great for a non turbo build(who wants that?) or great for a not more than 15 psi turbo build (who wants that either?) Ive never laid eyes on one but aparently the undrilled and untapped cast fitting for turbo oil drainback is a dead giveaway.
4" filter and piping to the turbo is the way to go. 3" for the rest of the way is fine.
If you are going to do alot of hi speed rough rd driving then remote reservoir shocks is the only way to go. Our kiwi rds a a bit smoother but my non remote 6 way adjustables barely do the job and do fade.
These motors start to wake up nearing 20 lbs boost, then by 22 they are starting to go gd.
GD luck with the build

Kramer take the wheel!
He is a loathsome, offensive brute. Yet I can't look away
Had me crying...lmao
Racist bastid...
Dykeal Dickterds...
More diesel goodness!!!!
The best part about this series is how realistic it is. Yes there is some music but you can actually see and hear the work being done the flank of metal and the ratcheting of the bolts. And enjoy some dry humor in the process. Great job fellas!!
idk what it is - something about the calm way Al works and explains things while just chilling in a quiet shop somewhere in Australia is very...relaxing... that might sound corny but I find these videos so stress relieving.
Certainly better then watching 2 guys put a moped together. This is a great show.
Potaka79 still watched the whole episode though....
i really hope you guys get to keep doing these because Skid Factory is nothing but goodness all around
Its 2am in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and I must go to work at 5, but THE SKID FACTORY is more important right now!
Amar Kuljanin fuck off
Hey Jimmy Brown, good job keeping the hate going....You sound like a Trumptard, what's the matter did your sister find a boyfriend? Touch her again and he'll kick your ass....
jimmy shitstain brown
Amar Kuljanin how is the political stability there? That was a war zone some years ago.
Its like shit, 3 presidents, poor economy. Everyone is dreaming about leaving the contry, I am going to Germany very soon.
These are starting to grow on me, please never change.
Nice to see you guys working on one of your own rides!
Im honestly super happy about this series, always wanted something other than just MCM, and seeing Turbo Yoda do his thing, with good explanations why and how they do things is a really good watch.
"A bit of spooge you say"
That is the hardest I've laughed in a long time. It was the timing of it.
Awsome build, ive just done the same conversion but my patrol was a zd30 grenade, now its a td42 turbo diesel with factory auto 👍
Kramer in the driver seat is great
That hokey pokey ice cream is bloody good
Cheers from Texas! You guys are top notch! Mad respect and thanks for taking the time to teach and film everything for us.
Al is such a wealth of knowledge, I could sit and learn all damn day.
Southeast Queensland Dolphin Waxer's Association Christmas Party...did I hear that correctly?
Lolz, I had to rewind that too. I wonder how many get the joke?
Mankini with a full forest... I think not.
I thought that’s what I heard, but I wasn’t certain.
What is the story behind that??
It means to have a wank
I think Al is a gift, his sarcasm is god tier
Hi,
Be careful of the oil feed to the turbo. Not all of those small screws in the engine take the oil feed directly from the main oil gallery. There are 6 of them: Four of them are located just behind the engine front plate that holds the engine cover. The other two are located at the engine left hand side (the side of the camshaft location) at the same plane of the no. 2 and 3 main bearing. The same one you've taken the oil feed line form.
The two that are at the left hand side near no. 2 and 3 crankshaft journal feed from oil that comes out of the main journal to the camshaft journal. The oil, in the first place, comes from the main gallery after the filter and pressure relief valve to the main bearing at the unloading side of it. Because of the inherent utilization in the bearing design, the oil is metered through the main bearing into two bath:
- to the rod bearing through the crankshaft hole
- to the camshaft bearing through a straight hole from main to cam bearing.
So, these two screws go directly to that straight drilled hole between main and cam bearing.
The four screws at the front of the engine are as follow:
- RHS, the upper screw goes through block, then to main oil gallery, then to idler gear, then meats an upward hole for engine head lubrication.
- RHS, the lower screw meats directly to the hole that supply oil for the no. 1 main bearing.
- LHS the upper screw directs to the no. 1 cam bearing. But it is closed by the bearing its self. Used to drill the oil line for that specific cam bearing.
- LHS the lower screw, I do not know about it.
The screw that you took oil supply from is going to affect the corresponding rod bearing oil supply as the oil is metered by the main bearing design. Demanding addition oil requirement will affect the metered oil supply by the main bearing to both: the rod and cam bearings. This may cause a spun rod bearing and/or crankshaft failure. Furthermore, any reduction in oil pressure at the rod bearing will not show in oil pressure switch.
It is better to use either of the RHS screws though I prefer the upper one as it takes oil directly from the main oil gallery. Both RHS screws have non metered oil supply and no dependency in it, i.e., whatever happen to the oil supply is going to show in the oil pressure switch.
In addition, a lot of dirt is behind these screws. It is better to fluid them before connecting an oil line.
Good luck,
I love how chill this is, good after dinner content.
It's been 4 years . I can still watch that file pump go
Haha, I love Kramer in the drivers seat! A mate had that exact painting in their house many years ago!
If he's driving - you're gonna need ASSMAN plates.
......If your story had more dragons. Hahaha!!!
Can't get enough of this show! Love every second! Cheers!
Love this series, 3rd time watching it while waiting for new episodes on the LS swap
This stuff is great keep up the good work guys really enjoy your projects
those TD42 are raw grunt with a turbo, same as the TD27, with the turbo td27's just unhook the waste gate and run it, they love it!
Gotta love that Kramer picture sneaking up in all the vids! Good on ya, boys!
1 minute in - this is why I like Nissan... part availability many years down the line. Still able to get most parts for my "project" (a.k.a. an excuse to be in garage tinkering, may never actually see tarmac again) Sunny / Pulsar from '91 from the dealer if needed. Have to know the part numbers these days as their lookup software says no from time to time... but they have them bits on shelves still.
love your werk guys no bullshit attitude, you make it look easy because your pros and i know it ain't easy from experiance with car and 4x4 ownerships..
lol the Kramer photo in the front seat hahaha man that one made me laugh very loudly and it's nearly midnight here. My neighbors probably think I'm crazy laughing this loud with my window wide open.
Awesome! Getting there now. Can't wait for the turbo stuff next week.
I actually find these videos really relaxing :D thank you.
I've already forgotten about that old show we all used to watch. What was the name?
Anywho, Turbo Yoda really is knowledgeable about a great many wonderful things, he sure is great!
I love the Kramer painting in the background
"Nissan Pilates" 😂😂😂
Good stuff guys glad your back at it again can’t wait to see more !!
I'm so happy there's some diesel love! I'd be interested to see the dmax conversion he did.
Al can write a book with those quotes 🤣 love it. Thanks guys
Kramer chillin in the cab
Nice core strength there Al.
Lift pump helps the main injection pump so it doesnt need to work that hard and primes it at starts so it's a nice detail.
Best show since.......ever
I was having delusions of grandeur watching the first episode of this series, and then I remembered back years ago when I converted my old tb45 patrol to td42t and thought fuck that I couldn't be bothered hahahaha. My current patrol can happily stay a tb48..
Loving this build!!
I love this build. I've been thinking about swapping to a diesel in my 96 Tacoma.
i'd love to be able to download all of the automotive knowledge from Al's brain into a hard drive. The man is amazing.
You are very clever man Al.
Yes new episode! First thing I do is hit like, because I know it Will be good! Greetings from the Netherlands!
Kramer in the driver seat, Love it
11:09 Haha, love Al. Great channel, glad i found it.
OMG, The Kramer sitting in the driver seat!! HAHAHAH Love it, keep up the great work guys! :D
the pic of Kramer is a hoot !!
I love the Kramer portrait :)
You find your fuel pump wires, You find your fuel pump clip ,you take your fuel pump out, and you shake it all about..... you do the hokey pokey and you pump it all out, that’s what it’s all about!
Absolutely loving this content! Keep up the good work guys!
just found this channel. ha i love turbo yodas sense of humor
Turbo Yoda 1 liners are pure comedy gold.
Nice work fellas! Entertaining and informative as always!
Been waiting all week for this!!!
Love to see a Aussie 4wd being worked on.
Imagine if you did a petrol to diesel conversion like this,get down to the petrol station to fill up and realise you have to change the filler assembly.Thank goodness for His Yodaness!!
in the UK our fillers are like that as well. I always thought it was to stop people putting diesel in there petrol cars
Very enjoyable vids.Gotta get those core exercises in!
Milwaukee for the win
Good ol Kramer driving the TD42!
Love this show. Keep it up lads.
Im just planking braaaah🤣🤣🚙💨 Working on my core🙏
I like how MCM and Skid Factory are working Kramer into your videos. LOL
Fantastic. My favorite automotive show on CZcams. More Yoda.
always impressive work and very informative great video thx you! yoda is a beast.
very good work
Great video guys
Outstanding show guy's love ya work keep it up.... BUT you need more episodes. ...like one a week or maybe two😂😂😂 all ways hanging to see you show..
That restricted fuel inlet is made that way to prevent people from accidentally putting diesel in a petrol car
Rudpavv Rudpavv plenty of retards that still do it though. Even more that do it the other way....
yup
My grandfather put diesel in our old corolla apparently it lasted 10km and shat itself
No, Al explained it when the world was using leaded gas the opening was that full size, like diesel inlets, and when they switched to unleaded they didn't want people putting leaded gas in them. For what ever reason that has stuck even after they ditched the leaded gas
black69camaro2344 thats true but the system was retained. Even here in the UK the diesel nozzles wont fit into a petrol inlet. Because we have a high ratio of morons that cant seem to tell the difference. Usually they drive 4x4s that never see off road action.
How good is hokey pokey.🍧
Best show ever
Yeah sweet videos, love seeing some old straight six diesel action too, a lot of the parts look similar to my RD28 in my C33 Laurel which i am very familiar with :D Keep it up boiiis!
I never had alan pinned as a dragon person. More of a "sipping whiskey listening to slayer in the garage" kind of guy. The more you know
LOL... "I'm just planking bro"
Damn you.. I want hokey pokey icecream now..
Kramer in the driver seat is hilarious
got the chills when I realised Kramer is on the passenger seat! **english is hard**
Is Al doin' his own thing now instead of workin' at that shop where they built Super Gramps?
Turbo Yoda is god, best content ever.
Watch out, The Kramer is gonna steal the car!
Gotta love the BSP and NPT stuff. Like the whole world decided lets use the British system but the Americans HAD to be different and make their own. They hate the fact they never invented it. Its as if they try to make their lives more difficult! Language, metric system, Centigrade, fuel RON etc hahah!
Cal M actually, the imperial system was around long long long before the metric system.
Cal M actually, most about them that is different to us and the brits, was around long before we changed (except their fucked up spelling. That’s just retarded).
BSP is not metric mate.
Al certified cable ties 👍
Need to see a vid series on swapping in a Duramax into the Patrol....! Your just teasing us by saying that you have done it in the past..
